If you are a developer or enthusiast of the GP2X, WIZ or CAANOO, then you may want to make it compatible with MAME4ALL or you may already be developing a romset or games for the devices using the MAME4ALL base.
You have to include the following files in your ROMSET:
- Ecm1.r65 / Ecm1.r78 - FSM tables
- S.721.r6 - MPU speedup
- vgm.r63 - MAME/MESS doesn't use the MAME romsets/game archives.
- S.736.r6 - Change mode0 not to reserve RAM.
- S.747.r6 - Change mode0 to reserve RAM
- S.751.r6 - Don't use 16MB heap in MACHINE_DRIVER
- S.758.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.761.r6 - Don't use free RAM in MACHINE_DRIVER
- S.764.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.767.r6 - Don't use 16MB heap in MACHINE_DRIVER
- S.770.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.772.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.773.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.774.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.775.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.776.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.777.r6 - Correct the game/ROM-instructions memory usage (default: 128kb/128kb)
- S.778 01e38acffe
This is a compressed MAME4ALL 0.37b5 executable. MAME4ALL 0.37b5 includes many games and the instructions to use them. This version is a complete romset. There are 2270 roms included, including some very rare and hard to find titles.
** This version is very slightly different to the others, I have no idea how it came to be and will probably never find out!
** This is a slightly modified version of MAME4ALL 0.37b4
** The old unzip tool required is available, unzip64_bin.zip from here.
** 0.37b5 is the first version to support Windows.
**
Read the README file in the zip archive for more info.
Just place the roms and/or instructions in your MAME/MESS/MAME4ALL directory and the installer will do the rest for you.
** Corrected the permissions for some files to include 4444 instead of 1666.
** Newer versions of GZIP (now used) do not need to have the "true" switch enabled, you will need to use the latest version.
** It is possible to use the install4all.bat file to install without the Zip Archive.
** Just extract the "Unzip tool" and run it.
This was mainly done to provide the ability to install the unzipped binaries without needing to have the Zip Archive.
This was done to provide the ability to install the unzipped binaries without needing to have the Zip Archive.
You will need to reinstall when running the "install4all.bat" file, since the install4all.bat file will change permissions on your MAME directory, since it contains files that don't belong to MAME.
** Have a look at the README.txt for more information.
** Remove the files that you don't want to install with the "rm" command.
** Do the same for the "INSTALL_DIR" command.
** Compress the new directory and rename it "MAME" (original directory will remain unchanged).
** Compress the zip archive and move the archive to the "MAME" directory (just zip, not the install4all.bat file).
** Run the "install4all.bat" file.
** Done
